Female Superhero Costumes With Practical Redesigns

Female Superhero Costumes With Practical Redesigns
Female superhero costumes are anything but practical, so it’s no wonder that artist Lord Ingvard wondered what it would be like if female superhero character designs actually were more practical and functional. The artist did redesigns for several characters from the DC and Marvel universe.

Here we have Wonder Woman, Elektra, Supergirl, Black Canary, Ms. Marvel, Vampirella, Red Sonja, Power Girl, and Zatanna. There are no revealing designs here. No cleavage threatening to burst out, testing the strength of these costumes. Just practical clothing to get the job done.

ALIEN 3 Behind the Scenes Video: Bambi Burster Alien

If you enjoyed David Fincher’s Alien 3, you’ll enjoy seeing some more behind the scenes footage of what went in to creating the special effects for the movie. The video below focuses on a baby Alien called the Bambi Burster. It reminds me just how much I love practical effects and I’m glad they seem to be making a comeback with the new Star Wars movie.

The “Bambi Burster” was cut from the film, but this video shows a test of the unfinished puppet. In this case it looks like they were having a hard time getting the movement down. It is awesome that these guys got to play with all of the cool toys back then.
